Yes
for no particular reason. it was working i closed it down for a bit then tried to re-open it wont re-open yet it says its running on the program list, when i try to open it... its the CS3 portable so u dont install it as such anyone any ideas?
 
Stuid questiobn, but have you killed the process? If it's saying it's still running, chances are it's not closed properly.
 
yes ive killed it till its dead, ive tried rebooting, and you dont install the portable one.
 
ive even tried running it as admin and as a user ive taken it off the laptop and put it back on ive run 2 anti virus checks and sd/spyware checkers, ive tried a registry cleaner too.
 
a quick google search suggests deleting the preference file (which can be the source of this problem) and rebooting as this will generate a new file.

The file is called Adobe Photoshop Prefs or similar
 
yes and there is apparently a cs4 one or there is going to be one i forget which
 
couldnt find it so i deleated everything and got it off my portable hardrive and put it on now it cant find photoshop at all lol :S
 
well when my CS 3 is tiny, and fits on a 250 meg memory stick... its 147 megs
 
Adobe have never made a portable version of CS3 or CS4, Therefore I would say you are using pirated software.
